What If You Fell Through Earth and Came Out the Other Side



In the world's deepest gold mines, people work at a depth of over 13,000 ft. The deepest oil well on the planet is located in the Russian Far East, it goes more than 40,000 feet down. It's fifteen Burj Khalifa towers put on top of each other. One of the world's deepest and most famous artificial holes is the Kola Superdeep Borehole. Its depth is also over 40,000 feet! If you dropped a coin down the shaft, it would be falling for 50 seconds before it reached the bottom. A mere 9 inches across, this well was created for scientific purposes. People wanted to drill through the Earth's crust and see what lay below. But what if, by some miracle, you managed to drill a hole all the way through Earth? You've got through 8,000 miles of molten magma and solid rock. You've withstood the temperatures of almost 11,000˚F and extreme pressure – more than 300 million times more than at the surface of the planet. The well is wide enough for an adult to pass without having to squeeze through. It's also perfectly straight. The hole's walls are incredibly strong and won't collapse or melt. And then, while standing on the well's edge, admiring your handiwork, you slip and fall into the gaping abyss! #brightside CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0:

What if Birds Were the Size of a Plane



Six million years ago, Argentavis magnificens was one of the most terrifying creatures in the sky. This predator was 12 feet long and had a wingspan around 23 feet. The bird was about the size of a biplane but weighed much less: around 160 pounds or an adult man's average weight. Thanks to its powerful, large beak, Argentavis magnificens could swallow a rabbit whole. Now the largest bird is the Andean Condor. They reach 33 pounds, about the weight of a small dog, and a wingspan of 10 feet, which is more than the height of any player in the NBA. Fortunately, these birds are vultures – they feed on carrion and don't attack live animals. But what if we lived in a world where all birds were the size of planes? Imagine you're somewhere in Africa. You're riding in a jeep in a hot valley with friends. The vehicle passes a group of lions, hyenas, and giraffes, and then you stop near some elephants. Suddenly, the elephants panic, raise their trunks, and scream. In the sky, you see a strange plane. The elephants run away. The plane is approaching, and you realize that it's not a plane at all, but a massive bird of prey. It's bigger than a business jet but smaller than a Boeing… #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

If You See This Bug One Day, Don’t Squish It!



So you’re at home, enjoying your evening tea under a warm blanket, when all of a sudden you see a huge — no, enormous! — mosquito. Its long and gangling legs have a span of your palm, and it clumsily bumps into all the obstacles it meets. Despite its awkward appearance, it’s still terrifying! What if it carries malaria? Slowly, not to draw the monster’s attention to yourself, you get out from your soft chair and run for it into the bathroom, lock yourself in there, and open the browser on your phone. While googling, you get engrossed with reading up on some other weird and crazy bugs. For example, here’s the human-faced stinkbug. No, they don’t really stink, at least for humans. Here's a titan beetle next! It's the largest beetle in the whole world: it can grow as long as your entire palm, complete with fingers! Here's an Atlas moth that looks like they have three heads, two of which are serpent’s. They’re sometimes called cobra moths. There are 10 quintillion insects on Earth at all times and the critters on this list can fight to be named the “Strangest Bug Ever”. #brightside Preview photo credit: Crane Fly: By PiccoloNamek, CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=342594

Titanic Was Doomed from the Start, Here’s the Proof



Everyone knows this story: the "unsinkable" Titanic hit an iceberg. The tragedy happened over 100 years ago but even a century later the Titanic remains the most notorious shipwreck in history. The Titanic illustrates how technological failures often result from a succession of missteps, small failures and bad luck rather than one big mess-up. What if the Titanic sank today – would the scenario be different? Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Spider’s Web Is Part of Its Brain and 40 Other Wow Facts



We know almost everything about cats and dogs and can even read their mood by the way they move their tails. But what about other animals? It turns out that they’re just as amazing as our pets! Did you know kangaroo rats can survive for years without water at all, plumed basilisk lizards can run on water, and lyrebirds can learn and produce over 20 different sounds, including chainsaws, dog barks, car engines, and fire alarms? You definitely didn't know that when hippos get too hot, they ooze a pinkish liquid through their skin. Or that octopuses have three hearts. Their blood is blue, by the way. And they also have as many as nine brains! One is central, and other eight are — you guessed it — controlling their limbs! We aren't going to read a school biology book to you. We just want you to know the coolest animal facts that are never mentioned in these books! #brightside
